I was so sore yesterday and I’m sore still today.\u00a0 Only 50 push ups made me this sore.\u00a0 I can’t believe\u00a0I’m this out of shape.<\/p>\n
I want to feel strong again so\u00a0I’m off to work out.\u00a0 I have tons of work to do\u00a0at my job, but the work will still be there when I return.\u00a0\u00a0 Having to write about my exercise and the shame I will feel if I quit is a good motivator for me.<\/p>\n
When I look in the bathroom mirror, I see a white, harry, paunchy, pudgy, orangutan looking creature;\u00a0and it’s me!\u00a0 What happened to me?\u00a0 I used to be in such good shape.\u00a0 I was an athlete!\u00a0 I don’t want to look like this anymore.\u00a0 I\u00a0have to stop eating so much food at each meal.<\/p>\n
I’m off to work out now.\u00a0 It\u00a0feels so decadent to spend time on myself and exercise.\u00a0 I’m so used to being a work mule and just working all day.<\/p>\n
It is 3:00 PM and I’m off.\u00a0 I weigh about 205 pounds now.\u00a0 I’ll chart my progress.\u00a0 I’ll also weigh myself\u00a0later today and get my exact weight.\u00a0 As I was walking out the door, I paused for a\u00a0second and\u00a0decided I needed a small\u00a0something\u00a0of a treat before my journey to work out.\u00a0 I\u00a0found and\u00a0gobbled up\u00a0two\u00a0spoons of\u00a0pure\u00a0maple butter,\u00a0a gift my wife brought me\u00a0from New Hampshire, and it was soooooooooo delicious.\u00a0 It tastes like the stuff they smear on maple bar donuts.\u00a0 Wow, that was tasty, and at my age, I don’t\u00a0discover too many original taste sensations.\u00a0 I’ve basically eaten\u00a0every candy or\u00a0sweet\u00a0I could get my hands on in my life and this maple butter is a new and good\u00a0taste treat\u00a0for me.<\/p>\n
Now it is 3:05 and I’m really leaving.<\/p>\n
It’s 4:07 PM and I just got back.\u00a0\u00a0 The maple butter gave me massive heart burn.<\/p>\n
I weigh 204 with my clothes on and that’s\u00a0my starting point.\u00a0\u00a0 I will start\u00a0exercising now\u00a0because I\u00a0hate the feeling of my\u00a0man boobs\u00a0bouncing when I run or exercise (I’d like to know the man who does).\u00a0\u00a0 I ran\u00a0stairs for about 1\/2 hour and\u00a0I’m not sore anymore from my push ups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
